City Hall The Hague

With its 150.000 m² this building would have been one of the
largest projects in recent European memory, by definition a radical
break with the scale of the old city. The site has the form of a triangle, north and west façade align
with the urban traffic system, to the south a pedestrian area. The
building itself, in the form of a rectangle, is concentrated on the
north edge, thus leaving a - sunken - triangular plaza that forms a
cultural complex with the concert hall and the Netherlands Dance
Theatre, and relates to the elevated plaza in front of the
hotel.
